Description

[0001] A novel puncture-resistant composite outsole structure Technical Field

[0002] This utility model belongs to the field of shoemaking technology, specifically relating to a novel puncture-resistant composite outsole structure and its production method. Background Technology

[0003] Puncture-resistant safety shoes must meet certain standards, such as a puncture resistance greater than 1100N, to ensure sufficient protection in practical use. Puncture-resistant safety shoes primarily rely on incorporating a puncture-resistant midsole or steel plate in the midsole above the sole. These materials effectively defend against punctures from sharp objects, thus protecting the foot from injury. Common materials include steel plates and Kevlar midsoles, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the outsole structure of safety shoes is generally a rubber outsole + a middle foam layer + a puncture-resistant midsole. The puncture-resistant midsole is at the top of the outsole structure and is closest to the sole of the foot. Although it protects the foot, the high hardness and toughness of the puncture-resistant outsole result in a poor wearing comfort experience for safety shoes.

[0004] To improve the comfort of safety shoes, the prior art with application number 201310399986.X adjusts the puncture-resistant midsole to be between the rubber outsole and the foam layer. The puncture-resistant midsole used in this prior art is a high-strength polyester fiber tightly woven fabric. When the inventors used the Kevlar puncture-resistant layer to make the outsole structure of the safety shoes according to the disclosed method, they found that the semi-finished outsole after the rubber outsole and the Kevlar puncture-resistant layer were vulcanized together would deform, affecting further molding and the quality of the outsole. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the issue of deformation in semi-finished shoe soles after integrated vulcanization of rubber outsoles and Kevlar puncture-resistant midsoles, this invention provides a novel puncture-resistant composite outsole structure.

[0006] The objective of this utility model is achieved in the following manner:

[0007] A novel puncture-resistant composite outsole structure includes a foamed midsole and a rubber outsole, with a Kevlar puncture-resistant layer disposed between the foamed midsole and the rubber outsole. A layer of thermal insulation cotton is bonded to the upper and / or lower surfaces of the Kevlar puncture-resistant layer. The rubber outsole has a thickness of 3-5 mm, the Kevlar puncture-resistant layer has a thickness of 2.3-3.0 mm, the thermal insulation cotton has a thickness of 0.5-1.0 mm, and the foamed midsole has a thickness of 5-8 mm.

[0008] When the foamed midsole is made of EVA elastic material, a layer of heat insulation cotton is bonded to both the upper and lower surfaces of the Kevlar puncture-resistant layer.

[0009] When the foamed midsole is a PU elastic material, a layer of heat insulation cotton is bonded to the lower surface of the Kevlar anti-puncture layer.

[0010] The heat insulation cotton is GMF heat insulation cotton.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the Kevlar anti-puncture layer is formed by bonding a layer of heat insulation cotton to the lower surface or the upper and lower surfaces of the Kevlar anti-puncture layer, and then vulcanizing the Kevlar anti-puncture layer and the rubber outsole to form a semi-finished sole, and then connecting the semi-finished sole and the foamed layer to form a new anti-puncture combined sole structure. The new sole structure applied to safety shoes overcomes the uncomfortable feeling of the foot bottom caused by hardness and toughness in the original structure, greatly improves the comfort of safety shoes, has good anti-puncture effect, and has the advantages of simple production method, easy operation, high practicability, large batch production, good market prospect, etc. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
